    I don't follow; the British regimental neckties are not part of the uniform, but are worn by members and ex-members when in mufti (civvies) to show current or former membership in the regiment.

    The neckties worn with the Scottish regimental uniform, No2 Dress, are khaki (the colour we in the USA call OD / olive drab). Neckties are not worn in No1 Dress, as the doublet has a standing collar.

    Here the are again: no stripes! Plain khaki.



    The USA equivalent to the British regimental neckties which comes to mind are the baseball caps one sees that military veterans wear which have something embroidered on the front such as 38TH DIVISION. These wouldn't be worn while in uniform but rather when in civvies.
